L'exemplaire présenté fait partie de ces 30 dernières unités et a été délivré neuf en novembre 1957 par l'importateur New Yorkais Max Hoffman.
Il était équipé de la boîte automatique, sa carrosserie parée d'un gris graphite pour la caisse comme pour le pavillon, tandis que la sellerie était tendue de cuir rouge vif.
